35 Monterey Lane

All that there is to love about the village community of Sierra Madre will be found in this delightful home on Monterey Lane. When it comes to location, this 2 bedroom, 2 bath home is simply described as - perfect! Sited on one of the town's preferred cul-de-sacs, the 13,299 square foot resplendent lot will captivate with its garden vignettes, mature Oaks and Koi ponds while boasting a hard-to-find, close-knit community for those lucky to live on ''The Lane.''This thoughtfully designed home offers an open concept that reveals the surrounding garden spaces and the opportunity for ''nature's therapy'' from every angle. A floor plan of 1,589 square feet allows for easy flow between the living room, dining area and den which open nicely to a lovely side yard with water feature for tranquil outdoor dining. The original kitchen has been well-maintained and offers a 1958 Chambers range, tile counters, a pantry, a powder room and convenient access to the rear yard and gardens. Other features of this special home are hardwood floors, a natural brick fireplace, gracious built-in book shelves, leaded glass accents and picture windows for natural light and calming verdant views. This home will continue to delight with its Certified Wildlife Garden Habitat designation, magnificent native Oaks, two professionally designed ponds (by Jon Rassmussen, The Pond Co), the opportunity to have fresh eggs from the hens of the hen house, and fresh fruit from the productive trees (fig, apricot, orange, Meyer lemon, tangerine, guava and Anna apples). All this plus, ''bonus rooms'' in the rear yard offering the potential for tremendous added value ~ currently the bonus space is being used as a charming garden bedroom (measured at 200 sqft) and a separate workshop (measured at 308 sqft). Buyer to investigate the potential for these structures. 35 Monterey Lane offers the new owners one of today's highly sought intangibles, an opportunity to find peace and serenity within your own home and garden.
